The number of hours for which students of a particular class watched television during holidays is shown through the given graph. We draw the histogram for above frequency table: Answer the following: (i) For how many hours did the maximum number of students watch T.V.? (ii) How many students watched TV for less than 4 hours? (iii) How many students spent more than 5 hours in watching TV?

2 Class VIII Mathematics (Ex. 5.1) Answers 1. Since, Histogram is a graphical representation of data, if data represented in manner of classinterval. Therefore, for case (b) and (d), we would use a histogram to show the data, because in these cases, data can be divided into class-intervals. In case (b), a group of competitions having different heights in an athletics meet. In case (d), the number of passengers boarding trains in an interval of one hour at a station. 2. The frequency distribution table is as follows: The illustration of data by bar-graph is as follows: 3. The representation of data by frequency distribution table using tally marks is as follows:

8 Class VIII Mathematics (Ex. 5.3) Questions 1. List the outcomes you can see in these experiments. (a) Spinning a wheel (b) Tossing two coins together 2. When a die is thrown, list the outcomes of an event of getting: (i) (a) a prime number (b) not a prime number (ii) (a) a number greater than 5 (b) a number not greater than 5 3. Find the: (a) Probability of the pointer stopping on D in (Question 1 (a)). (b) Probability of getting an ace from a well shuffled deck of 52 playing cards. (c) Probability of getting a red apple. (See figure alongside) 4. Numbers 1 to 10 are written on ten separate slips (one number on one slip), kept in a box and mixed well. One slip is chosen from the box without looking into it. What is the probability of: (i) getting a number 6. (ii) getting a number less than 6. (iii) getting a number greater than 6. (iv) getting a 1-digit number. 5. If you have a spinning wheel with 3 green sectors, 1 blue sector and 1 red sector, what is the probability of getting a green sector? What is the probability of getting a none-blue sector? 6. Find the probability of the events given in Question 2.

9 Class VIII Mathematics (Ex. 5.3) Answers 1. (a) There are four letters A, B, C and D in a spinning wheel. So there are 4 outcomes. (b)when two coins are tossed together. There are four possible outcomes HH, HT, TH, TT. (Here HT means head on first coin and tail on second coin and so on.) 2. (i) (a)outcomes of event of getting a prime number are 2, 3 and 5. (b)outcomes of event of not getting a prime number are 1, 4 and 6. (ii) (a) Outcomes of event of getting a number greater than 5 is 6. (b)outcomes of event of not getting a number greater than 5 are 1, 2, 3, 4 and (a) In a spinning wheel, there are five pointers A, A, B, C, D. So there are five outcomes. Pointer stops at D which is one outcome. So the probability of the pointer stopping on D 1 5 (b) There are 4 aces in a deck of 52 playing cards. So, there are four events of getting an ace. 4 1 So, probability of getting an ace 42 4 (c)total number of apples 7 Number of red apples 4 Probability of getting red apple (i) Outcome of getting a number 6 from ten separate slips is one. Therefore, probability of getting a number (ii) Numbers less than 6 are 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 which are five. So there are 5 outcomes. Therefore, probability of getting a number less than (iii) Number greater than 6 out of ten that are 7, 8, 9, 10. So there are 4 possible outcomes. Therefore, probability of getting a number greater than (iv) One digit numbers are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 out of ten. Therefore, probability of getting a 1-digit number There are five sectors. Three sectors are green out of five sectors. Therefore, probability of getting a green sector 3 5 There is one blue sector out of five sectors. Non-blue sectors sectors

10 Therefore, probability of getting a non-blue sector When a die is thrown, there are total six outcomes, i.e., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. (i) (a) 2, 3, 5 are prime numbers. So there are 3 outcomes out of 6. Therefore, probability of getting a prime number (b)1, 4, 6 are not the prime numbers. So there are 3 outcomes out of 6. Therefore, probability of getting a prime number (ii) (a) Only 6 is greater than 5. So there is one outcome out of 6. Therefore, probability of getting a number greater than (b)numbers not greater than 5 are 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. So there are 5 outcomes out of 6. Therefore, probability of not getting a number greater than 5 5 6
